Harvest
The harvest begins in April and ends at the end of May, where we harvest mainly mechanized through a special riding machine (Harvest Machine), the only state-of-the-art oliver prototype in the world. The process begins at the beginning of its maturity, that is, the “optimal” point of the olive; this varies slightly depending on the variety.
Harvest time is essential, it is one of the points where we make the difference, no more than 4 hours elapse from the time the fruit comes off the tree until it enters the processing phase, thus obtaining an outstanding extra virgin quality oil.
1. COLLECTION AND LOADING
The olives are collected in an optimal state of ripeness and clean of residue. It is processed within 24 hours of collection. High quality given by the climate and soil of our valleys.
2. DOWNLOAD
The olive mill receives the collected olives and selects them, discarding the defective, broken, diseased, etc. Proceeding to its entry control through the hopper, in which samples are taken.
3. SELECTION AND DISTRIBUTION
Using an endless screw, the olives go to the cleaner where, through a current of air, the leaves and branches are separated and eliminated.
4. WASHING
From the cleaner, the olive goes to the washing machine using countercurrent water to remove dirt and other particles. Once washed, the fruits go to the scale where they are stored.
5. GRINDER
Completely crush the olive until it turns into dough. Releases the oil that is in plant tissues.
6. MIXING AND CENTRIFUGING
It consists of the separation of the different phases that form the solid and liquid paste using centrifugal force. The liquid obtained is made up of oil and alpechin (vegetation water).
7. STORAGE
Once the oil is obtained, it must be stored and preserved in the best conditions. This is stored in the wineries in stainless steel tanks.
